I would like to harmonise all the warnings and templates we issue, with goal to creating a standard look, format and content to the messages. Even if you use VP, VS or any of the other vandal tools out there, I still feel this is worthwhile.

Khoikhoi once again is stepping in when he shouldn't. Him and Mackeral or whatever his handle is are placing pro-Turk propoganda claiming that Baklava is of Turkic origins when I clearly linked 5 different links all stating Assyrians invented it in the 8th century. Even after I stated that others make the claim as well. They used an insulting and condescending remark stating that they weren't "scholarly." This biased crap has no place on this encyclopedia.סרגון יוחנא
Salam. We can participate in adding some Islamic occasions in the Main page:On this day. Like Wikipedia:Selected anniversaries/October 23. But there are two problems. First, the lunar month doesn't begin at the same time in all countries:Sighting Reports for Ramadan 1427 and Sighting Reports for Shawwal 1427. Second, these pages (Wikipedia:Selected anniversaries/Recent changes) are protected and I think only admins can edit them. What's yur idea. Also I propose adding "On this day" in Portal:Islam--Sa.vakilian 03:37, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You're pretty quick with the revert button, FayssalF. You also seem to think that there is something POV or otherwise controversial about stating that Hamas officials engage in anti-Semitic rhetoric. Do you intend to source some material for the Hamas article to back up your interesting thesis? Dasondas 22:27, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've been having problems editing the article on Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The article is already biased. It's listed under the category, "anti-semitism," which was apparently a compromise after people complained because the article was listed under the category, "anti-semitic people."
In any case, all I was trying to add was the information regarding Ahmadinejad's alliance with Jews against Zionism. But those watching the article won't allow it. So, I thought I'd ask someone such as yourself for help. Take a look at my edits (now reverted) and the talk page, to see what I mean. Robocracy 00:43, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please take a look at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion/Log/2006/October/16. It seems that some people want to remove any reference to Palestine. --Palestine48 21:25, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Fayssal, I agree that a huge fuss needn't be made, but it seems my rationale as to why differs from yours . The only parts of Category:Palestine that deal with the historical entity are parts of Category:Palestinian history (and a few articles in the mother cat which should be in the history sub like Anem). It seems that articles about culture, people, and economy all fall under the aegis of some sort of greater Palestinian Authority categorisation, or at least something that does not make use of the extremely controversial "Palestine" - which as of now implies that such a state exists. Describing what is (the Palestinian Authority) instead of what might one day be seems to me the most neutral and fair resolution to this, and I'm not sure how that can be taken to be a POV issue. If the Palestinian Authority were now an independent state, would we not include Palestinian culture, people, and economy? Cheers, TewfikTalk 15:39, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I would also like to add more info to the article, but my English wouldn't be positive. I noticed that you considered the Berbers as hosted eastern people. This is not true. The Berbers are indigenous people in Morocco. Maybe, you refer to the fact that the ancestors of the Berbers would be of eastern origin. OK; Even if this is true. That wouldn't mean that the berbers are eastern people. The capsians are in noway berbers. The Capsians can be easterns if you want, But nobody can assume that the berbers are eastern (Because the Berbers should be distinguished from the Capsians like as the Apple should be distinguished from the its tree :)). Like as we cannot consider the Germans as Africans only because the homo-sapien sapien spread from africa. As far as the Carthagians are concerned, it think it is wrong to consider the Carthagians as hosted people. Although, Carthagians shouldn't be a synoymous for Phoenicians, i think the referrence to the Phoenicians is enough.
Something others, i found this article: User:Thisisthepope/Arabic Cinema i think it is an article written on the wrong page, that page is supposed to belong to a user ans it is not an article's page. Best regards Read3r 18:03, 30 October 2006 (UTC) Yet one note [Only for personal information, not for wikipedia-editing]; I'm almost sure you found the info used in "Ethnics and languages" in the britannica. I don't really care anymore whether the moroccans are Berbers or arabs. But it is worth noticing that the britannica is not trustable like it make as believe with its percentages. A comparison with wikipedia showed that Britannica is not much better than wikipedia [and the contrary is also true, of corse].

Salam Fayssal,
I didn't know how to create a sandbox. So here is a totally new version of my article. Please allow it in the "Islam" discussion page.
Responding to the criticism against Prophet Muhammad (PBOH) from the Vatican Pope and earlier the Danish cartoons and recently the French professor Robert Rebeker, I would like to add a few points.
Islam really used swords to put away governments that did not accept their people to declare their Islam. Prophet Muhammad faught only kings, armies and governments like the one that tortured Jesus (PBOH) for his Christianity, as seen in "The Passion of the Christ". (Al Tawba 12) فَقَاتِلُواْ أَئِمَّةَ الْكُفْرِ إِنَّهُمْ لاَ أَيْمَانَ لَهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَنتَهُونَ shows clearly those concepts. Prophet Muhammad didn’t fight the people, instead he spread a peaceful Islamic environment that made it safe for everybody to worship whomever they wished as in (Al Tawba 6) وَإِنْ أَحَدٌ مِّنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ اسْتَجَارَكَ فَأَجِرْهُ حَتَّى يَسْمَعَ كَلاَمَ اللّهِ ثُمَّ أَبْلِغْهُ مَأْمَنَهُ . Non Muslims were only requested to pay taxes. Yet, in our region presently, we grow up in a violent environment where we beat our children to make them agree or obey. Prisons and police stations use violence sometimes, and people use violence to take a stand in most contentions. We grow up thinking that violence is a sort of negotiation. Islam tells us to negotiate in wise and good terms as in (Al Nahl 125) ادْعُ إِلَى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ وَجَادِلْهُم بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ.
The present look for Islam is tanned with some extremism. Some Muslims, who experience certain traumatic events or feelings of guilt, suffer great pains at a certain time which they don’t perceive as a sort of test for their Faith, they perceive it a punishment from God for their being away from his path, so they think. They declare themselves clergymen and nuns and start to wear a veil or grow a dense beard as a sort of salvation and to refresh their Faith through sacrifice, some of them even sacrifice their faces and hide them. The sad thing is that when those people heal and wish to reform, they get rejected from the society that calls their hair and face sacrifices a final destination without a return back. Hair sacrifice is really a big thing to do that's why we do it during Haj, with a permission to substitute it with another tradition of choice (Al Baqara 196) وَلاَ تَحْلِقُواْ رُؤُوسَكُمْ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ الْهَدْيُ مَحِلَّهُ فَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضاً أَوْ بِهِ أَذًى مِّن رَّأْسِهِ فَفِدْيَةٌ مِّن صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ, which shows it is not a sacrifice to do everyday. Islam does not approve monk-ship as a style of living (Al Hadeed 27) وَرَهْبَانِيَّةً ابْتَدَعُوهَا مَا كَتَبْنَاهَا عَلَيْهِمْ إِلَّا ابْتِغَاء رِضْوَانِ اللَّهِ فَمَا رَعَوْهَا حَقَّ رِعَايَتِهَا. God didn't create men to be exactly like one person in resemblance and appearance and taste for life, only in worshipping. Islam accepts everyone's outfit and we don't have a uniform to wear. The Indian Sari for example is accepted by Islam and a woman is requested to wear a veil only during prayers and Haj because you need it to add some holiness to the self during the occasion. Consider it a worshiping tradition but not a woman's regular outfit. Al Noor 31 is speaking about women's breastfeeding habits not their hair. The part وَلْيَضْرِبْنَ بِخُمُرِهِنَّ عَلَى جُيُوبِهِنَّ instructs women to cover their chest area completely and never show it while breast feeding excluding certain people وَلَا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ. Al Ahzab 59 يُدْنِينَ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِن جَلَابِيبِهِنَّ ذَلِكَ أَدْنَى أَن يُعْرَفْنَ shows that women wore dresses down till the knee. Cosmetics were allowed for all girls and women until they grow too old for it, as in Al Noor 60 فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جُنَاحٌ أَن يَضَعْنَ ثِيَابَهُنَّ غَيْرَ مُتَبَرِّجَاتٍ بِزِينَةٍ. Islam was targeting a conservative civilized modern society with elegant men and appealing women. Some people say it's in the Quran. Well, the Hijab in Quran states that Prophet Muhammad's wives should not expose themselves to people while they are at home. Just imagine the daily crowd in front of a Prophet's door, so the Quran tells them it is OK and not offensive if you talk to people from behind doors if you're not ready to meet them and never feel guilty about it. Over ages, some Religion men used Hijab among other legends like female circumcision to inhibit adultery in the community, but that has nothing to do with Allah's religion.
Let's also have a closer look to multi-wives marriages (marrying up to 4 wives). Islam came in a time where people had several wives at the same time. It was hard to let a person declare his Islam and desert his many wives and keep "just" one وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَلاَّ تُقْسِطُواْ فِي الْيَتَامَى. It was easier to go through a transition from 10 or 8 to 4 and then to one only. Al-Nissaa 3فَانكِحُواْ مَا طَابَ لَكُم مِّنَ النِّسَاء مَثْنَى وَثُلاَثَ وَرُبَاع states you can keep any two, three or four out of those you liked from your existing women and if you fail to be fair to them 4, then you are allowed to keep only one فَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَلاَّ تَعْدِلُواْ فَوَاحِدَةً. Later, Allah mentions that you will never be fair with women (Al Nissaa 129)وَلَن تَسْتَطِيعُواْ أَن تَعْدِلُواْ بَيْنَ النِّسَاء وَلَوْ حَرَصْتُمْ Islam here brings dignity to the woman and lets her be the one and only for her husband instead of sharing him with 9 others. I don't mean people who have second wives should divorce them for we can then fall into a social crisis. Islam should start to build itself again over the existing situation as it did before during our Prophet's time. Everybody would keep his wives, but we have to take a new Islamic approach that states clearly no more multiwives marriages among the new generations unless with an Islamic decree (Fatwa) for each case. Islam encouraged and accepted everybody to approach God as they were and then applied the rules gradually. Islam also used the multi-wives ancient community during the Prophet’s time to free women from slavery. So in Al Nissaa 3 فَوَاحِدَةً أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُمْ ذَلِكَ أَدْنَى أَلاَّ تَعُولُواْ, God mentions that you can keep one wife or the women slaves. People of that era who married their slaves gave them liberty by tradition. Islam came to offer the woman monogamy, freedom and dignity; that's why marrying more than one wife is not a Sunna. Al Ahzab 50 قَدْ عَلِمْنَا مَا فَرَضْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ فِي أَزْوَاجِهِمْ وَمَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ لِكَيْلا يَكُونَ عَلَيْكَ حَرَجٌ shows that Prophet Muhammad was ordered to marry in a different way than anybody and then in 52 لا يَحِلُّ لَكَ النِّسَاء مِن بَعْدُ وَلا أَن تَبَدَّلَ بِهِنَّ مِنْ أَزْوَاجٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكَ حُسْنُهُنَّ proves he did not make marriage decisions freely as everybody else. His wives served as trustable narrators for a specific era like the Apostles of Christ; that's why he was not allowed to replace any of them as of a specific time. Some of the people who still fight against monogamy say that man was not created monogamous, yet they know that Adam (PBOH) had only one wife when he needed four wives most to build the world, and Noah as well.
A question remains, did God bestow a gift on Muslims to marry four wives and left the rest of humanity without such social privilege? If it was so, every man would have used that prevelige. Did God order only Muslims to cover their hair and left the rest of humanity enjoying the hair gift? Islam has a place for everybody with or without beards and veils. At this era, Islam needs people who can do more than just worshipping. We lack brilliant communicators, negotiators and drivers of civilization. We can at least attract them.
Still addressing our critics, Islam says let's all sit together and pray that whoever says something wrong about God be doomed as in (Aal Imran 61) فَمَنْ حَآجَّكَ فِيهِ مِن بَعْدِ مَا جَاءكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ فَقُلْ تَعَالَوْاْ نَدْعُ أَبْنَاءنَا وَأَبْنَاءكُمْ وَنِسَاءنَا وَنِسَاءكُمْ وَأَنفُسَنَا وأَنفُسَكُمْ ثُمَّ نَبْتَهِلْ فَنَجْعَل لَّعْنَةُ اللّهِ عَلَى الْكَاذِبِينَ . And still addressing our community, we have to revise the English version of the Quran, and try to find for ourselves what was misinterpreted over the last 1500 years that might have brought us down to mockery and criticism. We have a golden opportunity to add up 1 billion new Muslims, just if we know that none of them wants to be a clergyman or share her husband with another.
Finally,(Al Baqara 136) قُولُواْ آمَنَّا بِاللّهِ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيْنَا وَمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَالأسْبَاطِ وَمَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَى وَعِيسَى وَمَا أُوتِيَ النَّبِيُّونَ مِن رَّبِّهِمْ لاَ نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّنْهُمْ وَنَحْنُ لَهُ مُسْلِمُونَ that states we all worship one God, The One And Only.

First of fall, accept my thanks for inviting me to a lounge for delecious Coffee . Now, let me mention the reason that brought me here (on your stunning-designed Talk Page). Recently, I posted a request for full protection at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection#Current_requests_for_protection for article {{marwat]].
I don't want to go into history of that long edit war, that is based upon personalism by my opponent for whom I having sympathy and commiseration at once.
I have been under an attack by the above mentioned wiki-mate User:Marwatt. There is too much to say and too much to talk and too many blames.
Inshort, I have committed many many mistakes in past on wikipedia, but not a major mistake is committed so far. But I assure you that those mistakes weren't made deliberately but were really made by unintentionally. I am heartly, deeply sorry for myself.
Now, I would like to be good, infact excellent, someone who be known as vey brilliant for his contribution to Wikipedia, as I think I can help wikipedia by extreme of my knowledge and literacy. In this regard, I would like someone to guide me and be my guiide on wikipedia. As you seems too much kind and compensionate one, I would like to request you to teach me and give me tasks with procedure so I start working upon my aim, instead of going for edit wars for long long and waste my own time with reputation of Wikipedia.

Assalamolekum,
I am not going to question your act of blocking the above page but before I go into any subsidiary details I wish you had seen the matter in its entirety. I will just make a few links over here so as to open your eyes about the above name user User:A M. Khan.
Firstly, of all I have already filed a case against him at WP:CFRU for his sock pupating. I would suggest that you look at my case that I have made against him.
Secondly, the whole edit war (so much to say) revolves around his POV entry of a petty Government Servant known as Akhtar Munir Marwat. He tried to create a separate page for this gentleman but the same was nominated for AFD and was eventually deleted with consensus. He tried to recreate the same page but the same was speedy deleted. (Check the deletion log over here [5]). Since this POV entry does not fulfill the criteria of WP:BIO therefore, I repeatedly requested the above user on the discussion page of Marwat to stop pushing this entry. But he was persistently bent upon on vandalizing the above page.
Thirdly, as far as the civility of the above user is concerned, you could see it for yourself on the discussion page of Marwat. And I quote "so I would like to see, that how you can make NAB nabbing Akhtar Munir of whom ""stick"" can hardly be held in your hands". I am sure that you do understand what is the meaning of holding a stick.
I can go on and on but what makes me particularly disappointed is that before you could lock the above page, he still managed to enter his POV entry and in the end Wikipedia lost. I would only request you to go through the whole string of his contributions and the other sock puppets that he has created and then decide for yourself. --Marwatt 20:24, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop this Drama.
Unfortunately, you might have taken an undue advantage of a small loophole in the Wikipedia System for now but I am watching you and your sock puppets. I will keep track of your vandalization, rest assure, if no one else does.
And by the way, I accept your apology but that's not going to make me change my mind as far as the entry of Akhtar Munir Marwat is concerned. He simply does not fulfill the criteria of WP:BIO. --Marwatt 21:48, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are absolutely right, all the links (you posted on Marwat's Talk-Page) are of the same Akhtar Munir Marwat, whom I am editing. He is the Honourary Secretary of Peshawar Flying club, he is also the younger son of Khan Habibullah Khan. Not only these he held various other high important designations of Bureaucracy of Pakistan, such as Secretary Social Welfare, Balochistan, Commissioner of Malakand, Commissioner Quetta, Deputy Commissioner of various places and even Political Agent who is directly under President and Governor only and have many Law enforcement powers that can be challenged by President of Pakistan and few by Governor of the relevant Agency.
Additional Secretary is the 2nd highest rank in the bureaucracy of Pakistan. Also be aware that Federal Additional Secretary is the same rank as of any of the Chief Secretaries in Pakistan. Additional secretary is in the same grade (21), as any of the 6 Chief Secretaries those are working in Pakistan. Let me add very important and elevated valuable thing here that currently Akhtar Munir Marwat, is working as Additional Secretary for Ministry of Kashmir Affairs and Northern Areas. Kashmir and Northern Areas, both of the regions are represented by 2 different Chief Secretaries, those two are having more power than any other 4 Chief Secretaries of NWFP, Punjab, Balochistan and Sindh). These later mentioned Chief Secretaries are most power after the Governors of their provinces. As you must know Pakistan was a colonial state of British, so still the same system is running in Pakistan and India. But in Kashmir and Northern Areas, Chief Secretaries are directly powerful, as they are the major representatives of Federation of Pakistan (Federal), as in both areas there is no Governor nor any higher representative of Federation except these two CS. ‘’’Now come to the main point, that Akhtar Munir Khan Marwat is superior to both of the Chief Secretaries of Kashmir and to Northern Areas of Pakistan a.k.a. FANA (Federally Administrative Northern Areas). Both of the Chief Secretaries are under to him’’’. You can also send an e-mail to the mentioned Ministry and they will reply you with the answer that will support my above mentioned claim.
Now, as you can make an easy Justice yourself, just give me a reason that how come Akhtar Munir Marwat is not a distinguished personality? I don’t want to lengthy this topic by clearing you that User:Marwatt is political opponent to Akhtar Munir Khan Marwat, his brother Anwar Kamal Khan Marwat and all others relevant to this notable and famous personality of Marwat. For god sake, ask him not to bring personalism here.
It is my mistake that a separate page (Article) for Akhtar Munir Khan Marwat was deleted due to my absence and not filling the requirement. User:FayssalF, don’t you think that there should be a separate article for this person? Yes, there should be. User:Marwatt even tried to delete the article of Khan Habibullah Khan and Anwar Kamal Khan claiming that they don’t meet the Wiki criteria, infact he thought that I won’t be able to defend them so they will be deleted otherwise he know well that Khan Habibullah Khan was most high profiled Marwat in government ever. This clearly proves that he is against this outstanding and prominent family on personal basis.
Thanking you in anticipation,

Well every one, I can only say that I am myself a Grade 20 Officer in the Federal Civil Bureaucracy of Pakistan and I believe I can provide certain facts and figures for removing this mystical aura of being a so-called “Additional Secretary” in the Federal Bureaucracy of Pakistan.
Unfortunately, we Pakistanis were a colony of Great Britain and they left us with this rotten structure of Bureaucracy that has crumbled in many developing countries under its own dead weight. Currently we are also in the process of restructuring and reforming our Civil Services under a joint pressure from World Bank and IMF, who have provided generous funds for accomplishing this Herculean task. In the process though much of the old system has been discarded in which a bureaucrat was considered as a demigod and earthen lord of the poor people of Pakistan.
As a matter of fact we still have a huge federal and provincial bureaucracy and for the records there are 45 Divisions at the Federal Secretariat level of Pakistan and each one of them is headed by a Federal Secretary of Basic Pay Scale or BPS 22 (though a few of them get promoted to BPS 23 as well and are called as Secretary Generals) [7]. Furthermore, every Division in the Federal Secretariat has on the average 2 Additional Secretaries of BPS 21 and which makes their number roughly at 90 (once again this number is just and I repeat just for the Federal Secretariat of Pakistan). Having said that, I should also point out that there are 4 Provinces, ICT (Islamabad Capital Territory), Azad Jammu and Kashmir, and countless other Federal and Provincial Autonomous and Semi-Autonomous Bodies and Organizations which have both BPS Officers of 22 and 21. As a rough estimate Total Federal Employees in BPS 19-22 are about 3200 [8]. Now that’s just the civil side of our enormous bureaucracy. What about Officers of Armed Forces of Pakistan in BPS 22 and 21? Since this information is classified but I can give a rough estimate from this report [9] that there are more than 50 Officers in total (Army, Air Force, and Navy) who are at the level of Lieutenant General or BPS 22 and one can thus make their own fair assessment of Officers of Armed Forces in Basic Pay Scale 21.
The point that I want to make is that if we start to make separate pages for each of these bureaucrats who have done nothing else but to earn a monthly salary and go home and none of their actions conform with the policies of WP:BIO then Wikipedia will just have to make a thousand pages for Pakistani Bureaucrats alone. The point is that if you are a poor artist with no money in your pocket but have created a master piece which attracts national or international recognition then that is what we call fame. Being a “private pilot” is not at all a criterion for inclusion in Wikipedia. As a matter of fact there are a total of 244,000 Private Pilots in USA alone [10] and alternatively you can estimate the number of private pilots in Pakistan.
Therefore, Akhtar Munir Marwat is just another middle level Bureaucrat who has done nothing of national or international fame and thus does not qualify to be included in this article. --Marwatt 00:22, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
(NOTE = I HAVE PROVIDED MY REPLY TO EVERY PARAGRAPH IN ITALICS. --Marwatt 15:14, 10 November 2006 (UTC))[reply]
First of all, I would like you to pay attention on the followings:
IfUser:Marwatt starts hard-working on other issues like this minor issue, he might help Wikipedia. But once again, you can notice yourself that he is victim of personalism. Why he cannot find a link for Khan Habibullah Khan's article? As a Wikipedian it is his duty to find links for the articles and to expand him. He starts deleting the articles of Khan Habibullah Khan and Anwar Kamal Khan because of having personal enmity with this family, it is clear now.
Now let me tell you, I agree that there are large number of BPS 21 and BPS 22 officers in Pakistan. But here let me add very very informatics thing for you that Ministries Section Officers (who basically are in grade 17 &18) are even having a separate Section to take control of any organization of his relevant Ministry.
Suppose an I.G Inspector General who in Pakistan is basically in Grade-21 or Grade-22 is under the Joint Secretary of that Ministry even. A Joint Secretary is having 2-4 Deputy Secretaries under him/her. Same like each deputy secretary is having 3-6 Section Officers under him. One of the S.O would be responsible for Police Section, one for Passport Section, one for Immigration, One for Arms and so on. Now you can yourself guess the powers of Bureaucracy in Pakistan.
There is too much to say on this article, too much. But it will spoil and damage the "soul" of the actual point of debate we are discussing here.
My fellow User:Marwatt himself curses Bureaucracy that is a British System. This shows that a Bureaucracy is the actual power in Pakistan. Bureaucrats are official policy makes in the relevant Ministries under the constitution of Pakistan and ESTACOD a.k.a Establishment Codes. The Ministries Officers are not under the staffs that are deployed on field. Like Ministry of Defence is having Army, Navy, PIA, Air Force, Aviation Authority, Civil Aviation Authority, SCO, and many many more divisions. A Grade 22 Officer represents all of these divisions, but they are different parts of the ministries. So there are for sure under a Joint Secretary of Ministry.
Now let me clear by one of your own link. hat is about Zardari's (Husband of Ex-Prime Minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto to Akhtar Munir Marwat. This clearly shows the power of a bureaucrat, that how much power he/she is having to interfere in Governmental Politics.
There are nearly 100 Secretaries and Additional Secretaries in Pakistan and 6 Chief Secretaries. Having pages for secretaries and Additional secretaries is worth for Wikipedia. In Pakistan there are more then 2000 Assembly Members now, Including Assemblies of Punjab Balochistan Sindh, NWFP Northern Areas Kashmir. So when we are having the pages for those who even are illiterate mostly, they why can't we have for an Additional Secretary who is having Pakistan's first Private Pilot Licence #001. You can check it by e-mailing it to Civil Aviation Authority of Pakistan. And here also let me inform you that very few of Bureaucrats become Commissioners Deputy CommissionersPolitical Agents, Director Generals, Managing Directors and some other high profile posts.
Now also let me rewrite that Akhtar Munir currently heading two Chief Secretaries out of 6 from Pakistan. And you must know the powers of Chief Secretaries yourself and then decide.
I don't know why USer:Marwatt is cursing the British Bureaucracy System, being himself a Bureaucrat, as he claims. There are no reforms at the moment when there will be, surely we will follow those but won't talk against it as he is doing.
On one stage he wrote that there are 3200 Officers of BPS 19, this shows that how much Additional Secretaries are controlling.
May be he is the one who goes his home with doing nothing in office. But I know many many bureaucrats who are working to make this country a grown up one.
Dear FayssalF, I never wanted to make this topic lengthy, but as you know, it is extremely necessary to reply the points of USer:Marwatt, as this is the chance to clear this issue. Now when he is fail to defend his claim, he started turning the task of this discussion, by warding and facing the topic to some where else.
At the end, if you wish, you can check the system of Bureaucracy in British, we are having same system it would be easy for you to understand. Otherwise you can visit www.csspk.com here you will find a book ESTACODE (Online Version) there you will know the powers of a bureaucrat. Even though Minister cannot issue something directly, until unless Secretary doesn’t permits it. You can check this enormous claim too.

What should I call it, a dilemma or Catch-22 of our nation?
It is strange that User:Marwatt never wanted to discuss or talk about the relevant article(s) specifically Marwat. He always wanted to skip-off from dicsussing the disputes of the articles but he tried to impose and started trying banning, blocking, preventing the user whoever write against his macthings.
I never compromises on my conscience, that is always a supporter of truth, eventhough my mind and heart sometimes oppose and reflects basics of my coinscience but still conscience wins atlast.
I will leave the Wikipedia for whole of my life, if it satisfies my fellow User:Marwatt, so it would be easy for him to be a Dictator here as there will be no opposition left for him. But kindly don't force a lie to win.
Just make an appeal here, I will leave Wikipedia, but can't see the insult of "truth" and respect of "lies" here.
I admitt my mistakes and guilt in past, I am extremely sorry for it, kindly forgive me all.
